Financial Agreement Guidelines used to increase transparency of the budgeting process and the accounting of program balance.   In fall of each year, the host institution will meet with consult the IO of each partners to determine the budget and break-even enrollment number and to set the program fee. Programs may be canceled if they do not meet the break-even enrollment which is determined at the application deadline and deposit deadline. If a program does not meet the break-even enrollment at either of these points, the host institution will notify the IO and give them the opportunity to determine if it is willing to solely subsidize the program loss. If the deposit deadline has passed and enrollment drops below the break-even number, the program will not be canceled, but any financial losses as a result will be shared evenly with each partner. 2nd Meeting of AIUA 18th October 2015
